Re: Reds host Cards 7-16-11

I like this lineup for the Cardinals. Colby could use a day off in the worst way

I always hate watching Arroyo pitch. I feel like the Cardinals do well against him but having to watch that leg kick for 5 innings bugs the crap out of me, I don't know why but I really don't like it. Kind of like Ryan Dempster and his glove twist.

Re: Reds host Cards 7-16-11

Let's see...make all the plays...check......3 for 5 with RBI to tie the game....check.....fantastic base running...check....brings a little fire to the lineup...check.....sitting on the bench....WTF?

There is just no consistency with Bake and his logic. I would love to hear why Heisey is hitting 8th and Cozart is on the bench. Why not hit Heisey behind Bruce or even bat him second? But at LEAST he is IN the lineup.......

Of course what is the alternative? If you only have youth that can play centerfield, then, obviously, a young person is gonna play centerfield. I would say something closer to the truth is they let Dusty try Taveras and Patterson and finally Jocketty said enough is enough.
